Tho late Legislature can justly claim
to have been conservative, as it loft near
ly everything as it WP.S found. This is
not altogether au injury to tho people.
They might have made many changes,
and dono woreo than letting things
alone.
Hon. S. J. Randall is making a tour
of tho leading Southern cities for the
purpose of studying the resources and
industries of tho South. He expretse?
himself in favor of tariff reduction toan
extent that will only raise revenue
enough to defray the expenses of thu
government, adjusted HO rs to protect and
foster American industries. Mr. Randall
hus not included South Curoliun in li ia
route. If his tour is meant lo bu the
forerunner of a boom for President in
1888, ho should have slighted no State.
We take pleasure in endorsing the
article of tho Greenville Newt, recom
mending Hon. D. F. Bradley for the po
sition of Collector of Internal Revenue
for South Carolina. Col. Bradley is a
thorough Democrat, and has done valua
ble Bervice for tho party, and for his
State. Ile *\n upright, reliable, worthy
gentlemen, of fine business qualiGcations
and ability. In our opinion, he ia the
very man for the poaition named, and if
appointed would discharge tbe dutiea of
the office accoptably to the government,
and with credit to himself. He bas the
confidence and respect of tho people of
the State, and bis influence would go
very far to secure obedience to tho Reve
nue laws throughout the District. In
the enforcement of these laws be would
have the firmness and judgment neces
sary to properly execute them, and at the
same time wculd employ aufficient tact
to enforco them considerately and prop
erly, ao that the prejudice which baa been
aroused by the bad men who have hold
these positions would gradually disappear.
Wo hope Col. Bradley will receive the
appointment.
The Greenville News says s "The
majorities of both houses of the South
Carolina Legislature ought to be Episco
palians. The passage in tho confession
al, 'We have done those things we
ought not to have done, and left undone
those things wo ought to bavo done,' fita
their case BO beautifully. It would be
even moro appropriate if amended by
tho insertion of thn word 'all' before the
word 'those' wherever it occurs." The
trouble with a Legislature ia that they
aro criticised on all Bides, both for what
they do and for what they Icavo undone.
We do not ogreo with our contemporary
in declaring the present Legislature
utterly bad. There aro many things
which wo would like to see otherwise in
our InwB, but no person cnn have their
own way altogether. Even the Green
ville News and the INTELLIGENCER
could not make tilings euit everybody if
tho work ware left to UR, for in many
things we would be like the present Sen
ato and House of Repr?sentatives-the
Newt would be on ono eldo of tho ques
tion and the INTELLIGENCER on another.
Tabing everything into consideration, we
nre satisfied thc present Legislature has
mers ?oci in ii by *?r than ft bas of evil.
None of the Anderson delegation have
responded tn the call (or information aa
to how the bill for a prohibition election
in Anderson County failed to become a
law. Tho one thousaud votera who
petitioned for tho right of thia election
are entitled to know why tho bill was
reported without recommendation in the
House, and why no action waa taken on
it in the Senate, beyond the refusal of tho
Judiciary Committee, of that body to in
troduce the bill. Oar Senator is a
member of that Committee and can
doubtless tell why the Committee deci
ded against the bill. We learn that two
of our Representatives went before that
Committee, one ngninst the bill and the
other for it. Why not tell the people
iiow the delegation atood, and what they
did on thia bill. They aro the agenta,
not the mattere of ?he people. We aro
. entitled to an account of tb lr steward
ship; They are, of course, sine ire io their
views, and they ought not to I too timid
to express them. We wont to know who
are the members of tho Anderron dele
gation that arrogated to themselves to
refuse a compliance with the wisbea of
their constituent* du this bill. Speak
our, gentlemen, and enunciate your posi
tions. Tell ua iu Anderson what you
bave done in Columbia.
The Newberry Observer is atilt after
the INTELLIGENCER, and Is not more
fortunate io ita comments Ibis time than
it was before. It says :
We are truly sorry that our esteem nd
cotecaporary is ao auspicious. Why
should we ontertain malace towards the
INTELLIGENCER? And if entertained,
why "conceal" it? Tbe INTELLIGENCER
makes thia matter personal at the start
by trying to belittle those who oppose the
State University and the Canal. They
are "local politicians," (which means, as
every ooo koowa, men of no reputation
beyond their immediate sections), who
have "pent-up rhetoric" to expand. The
INTKLLIQRHCKB, on the contrary, favors
these measures. Certainly, after ao in
vidious a distinction, it ia io order for
tbe Obtener to draw a comparison and
state Its estimate of those who agree
with lt.
As to tho probable result of tbe dis
cussion of these matters in the General
Assembly, the Observer has no expecta
tion that there will be any "change In the
Euler of the State" for tbe primest; but
ia should ar* deter any one from ex
?sing bis ?iews-ard making an hones!
it for-w?mt ho behoves to be right,
7e.'entertain oo malice towards any
one > f/ut We have no patience -with' big
who tiy to belittle and deride those
who disagree with their. opinions. If
styling tho membera of the General As
eembly who oppose.the University "the
heal politicians,"ia con t radis tio ct iou to
th oso who 'n favor it, is .not, intended to
bolittlo thew, then what is it for?
The INTELLIGENCER should remember
(hst tho tight to criticise is ?ot an ex?
dosive righti that bo who assumas, to
criticise others must himself submit tb
criticism i and th** malice is no. moro to
be. implied on the ono sido than on the
Other.
Wo are ?ure wa castiot tell why thc
OUette? should entertain malle* for the
. ?ingisfe 'thai' wc have
had tho temerity to differ from our con
temporary on several public questions.
There ia no reason for it to conceul its
maltee, except that it ha? repeatedly
asserted that it entertaines none, and ive
arc satisfied that our contemporary be
lieves that it is unprejudiced and candid,
but no reader of the paper we imagine
will agree with him. In all of bis differ
ences with the INTELLIGENCER, he has
invariably begun and continued the con
troversy with irrelevant and unculled
for personal thrusts At the Editor of thc
INTELLIGENCER, which have w?'cd no
purpose in the controversy, ex ept to
manifest a personal antipathy to the
Editor of this paper. The whole of our
offending in this instance, was in assert
ing that those who would oppose the
Bouth Carolina University, were "local
politicians." For this, the Observer re
minds the public that the Editor of tuc
INTELLIGENCER ran for Congress tu the
late election. What has this to do with
the South Carolina University? It is
simply a child like thrust, meant to bo
unpleasant to an opponent, but not con
nected willi the matter in hand. Then
follows a Htring of boorish comments
which seek to defend nn attack which
was never made. What tve convoyed in
tho paragraph of which tho Observer
complains, was that it was a waste of
time to discuss tho University, und that
the opposition would be made by local
politician?. Wo now stand ready to sus
tain that assertion by tho rccoid. The
volo was tl>reo to ono in favor of the
University, and the opposition to thu in
stitution came from local politicians.
We do not mean to say that tbeso gen
tlemen wero not the equals in brains, in
integrity and in all that makes true man
hood of any other men in tho world, but
we do mcau to say that they were all
County politicians, and most of them
came from Counties with opposing col
leges. They were, therefore, not only
local politicians, but were representing in
the most part, local feelings. The Ob
server is a local pnpor, and iu this tight
represents a local feeling, nnd we can
make all reasonable allowances for its
desperation when it wi HOB on theso sub
jects. Wo do not cluim to be exempt
from criticism, nor do we care to prevent
it. We have enough faith in the correct
ness of our positions, to be willing to
submit them to tho test of any fair dis
cuasion, and when debato transgresses
that, QB the Observir has done, by making
the consideration of principles subservi
ent to personal Imputations, it only hnraiB
him whoso side ?B so weak aa to render a
rc.ort to such methods necessary. Wo
submit that when our article was written
it was not ktjjwn which members would
oppose tho University. Tho Legislature
had not met, and our remarks were made
upon a question of public interest with
out reference to individuals. Tho Obser
ver made Ila attack not upon the question
involved, but upon the Editor of the
INTELLIGENCER. The publia cao judge
as to which savors moro of malice. In
conclusion, we would congratulate the
Observer upon tho evident improvement
in the tono of its last article. It inspires
the hope that nt no distant day we may
be ablo to differ from our contemporary,
and iudulgo in a discussion of those dif
f?rences, without being subjected to the
discussion of ptr<sonal matter*, wholly un
connected tvith the subject matter of the
contio/ersy.
A Defense of Dr. Woodrow.
PELZBR, 8. C., Dec. 24th, 1884.
Editor Anderson Intelligencer :
I have read in your paper 18th inst., a
statement about the Columbia Theologi
cal Seminary. Please publish the fol
lowing extract from an article which
appeared in the Southern Christian Ad
vocate last month, and written hy the
Bev. Dr. Brackett, of Charleston i
??*...
'-What the effect of this action will be,
we do not venturo to predict. In soy
event, tbe issue portends disaster. The
discussion bas brought the Church into
this deplorable dilemma. If the Profes
sor is sustained, the cry of heresy is
filling the air, and an irrepressible panic,
will distract the Church, which, Influ
enced by gross misrepresentation and
perversion of his teachings, have associ
ated in their minds the ideas of atheism,
materialism, and Daraioism with, the
Evolution as defined and limited by the
Perkins Professor.
"It may require years to dispel these
groundless apprehensions. On tho con
trary, if Dr. Woodrow is condemned,
then the Church must abolish bis cbsir,
or displace bim by electing an unscien
tific professor. What a humiliating
spectacle will be presented of the
Church lowering ber banner and retreat
ing, pale and psnio stricken, before the
march of modern sci?nce, afraid to meet
the enemy In any field, and while trans
cending ber prerogative In virtually
making a scientific deliverance, erecting
barriers to the freedom of investigstion.
'To abolish the chair/ says another, 'is
untruly to proclaim our defeat by the
enemies whom the chair wss established
to fight. It is untruly to confess that the
relation between God's word and God's
work?, will not bear examination and
free discussion; such confession, as It
seems to us, the child rf fear, ami that
tear the child'of misapprehension, dis
honors the cause of truth and dishonors
our great Leader.' 'As to the tendency
and results of the Professor's teachings,'
he ?dds, 'Columbia points to her jewels'
who, for twenty-five years, have sat
ander his teachings, and who testify to
the. value of instruction received.
Every conceivable argument and fact bas
been pleaded against bim ; vet no single
Instance of a pupil hurt by. bis teachings
can be cited.'
"Il ia due to the opponents of Dr. W.'s
teachings to say that they include macy
of the most honored and esteemed breth
ren of our Church, and the ablest cham
pions of our faith, who cannot be charged
with fanaticism or ignorance, unless U be
ign?ranos of what tho Per H il Professor
actually believes. No ono can question
the sincerity and depth of their convic
tions. They profoundly believe, and
Intensely feel that our Bible and cur
Confession are assailed by any theory
which involves the transmutation of
species. < For eur own pars, while having
no sympathy whatever with the Evolu
tion theory, end doubting if it ever can
be oroven, we should be deeply ?grieved
io see our Church exhibiting the spirit
which Professor Woodrow. deprecated la
hie Inaugural address, io 1861, "a spirit
that would crash all progresa Io science,
if such progress disturb, in the least
cherished views which may be without
real foundation in.the Bible, by the. em
ploy mont, not now of material instru
mento of torture, but by that which has
with too wach troth been denominated
Wtaft ikeclogicum.' The utmost encour
agement should bo gi v*n to ovory inquiry
pfter trntb. , Noe??tito- should tho
Inquirer be tolerated, bot he should have
reason to know that ho, la regarded with
approbation, and thai hts mutta will bo
cnbjccted.to all boco ming teat*, Wore
lucy arc adopted ns true. I^ct thc Church
diow herself thc patronea* of learning in
everything, at? she hu? done already in
most thing? : and let her nover be sub
jected, by mistaken friends, tu the charge
that she fears tho light, aud can sustain
ber claim? only where thia ia partially
obstructed." To check Ibis spirit of
intolerance, and to protect the Perkins
Professor against injustice, ia all that bia
supporters desire."
As we all know it bus been impossible
to check tho spirit of intolerance, and I
believe a fearful injustice has been dunc
Dr. Woodrow, and a ?tain and disgrace
put upon our Southern Presbyterian
Church.
Your correspondent claims that no
excitement hus been created among tho
students in attendance at the ?Seminary.
I know to the contrary, and tbut there is
great dissatisfaction among them regard
ing tho injustice done Dr. Woodrow, and
I also know tliut Kcveral desire and in
tend to withdraw from tho Seminary.
Further, thc statement is that Dr*. Hoggs
and Hcmphill requested that their resig
nations should tako effect on the ?JO th
of next June, but tho fuel is no professor
is allowed to resign without giving -ix
months notice, nod these professor? could
not retire before that time, however
deeply they sympathize with tho injus
tice suffered by their colleague.

A Murder In Abbeville.
ABBEVILLE, S. C., December 24.-To
day, about half-past 1 p. m., John C.
Ferbuson shot and killed Arthur Beni
dicte in the store of Charles Auerbark.
The ball eutered tho body just below
the heart and death ensued in biteen
minutes. Ferguson is in jail, having
been captured as econ a? thc shooting
took place by Policeman William Kiley.
Ferguson was under the influence of
whiskey when tho shooting took place.
Both parties are white and have borne
good characters, and both were quiet
men. Nu cauBC for the shooting can be
found out, except that about a week ago
Henidicte bought a load of wood from
Ferguson about which they disagreed.
It seems that Ferguson went i uto the
Htore and demanded pay for bia wood
and Benidicto denied that be owed for
it, whereupon Ferguson shot him down.
Benldicte was Auerback's clerk.-Special

A Diabolical Deed.
di ATTA NOON A, December 27.-A few
days ago como iniacreant placed an ob
struction across the Queen aud Crenceut
tracks, near Purvis, Mississippi. The
passenger train dashed into it, aud was
ditched. Tho engineer waa killed, sev
eral cars wore wrecked, aud a number of
passengers were injured. The railroad
detectives succeeded in tracing the deed
to a merchant Purvis.
It was ascertained that bia cattle bud
been killed by tho train.
Ile had appealed for damages, and
failing to receive it waa embittered
againBt the road and took this m cairn of
wreuking revenge. His BOO assisted
him. The populace were driven to fury
over his diabolical deed and to day at
daybreak took him iro n jail and hanged
him. The wretch confessed tho deed
beforo he was banged and exculpated bia
eon. His name baa not been learned.
There In Death lu the Cup.
In a recent letter to the Kev. A. Coko
Smith aa to the effect of drunkenness
upon the criminal atntiatics of this State,
the Hon. J. B. Kershaw, Judge of the
Fifth Circuit, writes aa followa: "I do
not consider myaelf as fully qualified to
give you any statistical information in
relation to tbo effect of alcoholic drinks
upon society, aa manifested in the Courts
of justice, as a cauae of crime. I have
heretofore kept no record of the cases
coming under my observation, with M
view to thia question. I can, therefore,
only answer from a general impression
derived from observation and experience,
both aa a member of tlir< Bar ?nd as a
Judge, with some approximation, no
doubt, to accurate proportion, but with
out the data to verify the ?talement. I
am able to say that I believe drunken
ness to be the cause, on an average, of
not much lesa than nine tenths nf the
crimea of violence now prevailing among
tho whited of the State. In relation to
tho coloied race, other causea occur more
frequently to induce crimea of thia sort
than among the whites. Drunkenness,
too, i? riot a very prevalent vice among
the negroes, and hence I think that the
proportion of crime attributable to that
cause ia considerably less than in the
case of the other part of the population.
"While, perhaps, nine-tenth* of other
crimeB are committed by negroes, homi
cides and kindred crimea are more fre
quently committed by the other class. I
nave no doubt that when the olber offen
ces, such a8 burglary, larceny and the
like, are committed by the whites, they
are largely, thounrh indirectly, attribu
table to the degrading effects* of drunk
enness. To some extent alao thia may
operate in the same way upon the other
race, but to what extent, in cither case,
this ia to be considered aa a causo of
crimes of the character last mentioned I
am unable to estimate."
For Revenue Collector.
The friends of the Hon. D. Frank
Bradley, of Pickens, are circulating pe
titions for bis appointment as collector
of internal revenue in thia Stnto to cue
ceed Brayton, who ought to go if a dem
ocratic government will recognize the
unanimous wish of the people.
Of all the men in South Carolina Maj.
Bradley is tho fittest for the position
sought for him. ilia character aa a man
and his record as a true blue, unwaver
ing, earnest democrat are beyond criti
cism, and bis capacity can not be doubt
ed. The tame might be said of many
other men, but the one peculiar qualifica
lion that makes Maj. Bradley the most
worthy i* the place be bold* io the affec
tion and esteem of the mountain people
among whom the government bas en
countered the greatest difficulties and
loss during the last ten years. No mao
io the State I* so generally known, liked
and trusted in the moonshine districts.
He is koown as a brave and honest man
inflexible in the discharge of bia duly
but preferring alway* to use mild meth
ods while they are admissible or proper.
A* collector hr* purpose rould be to
prevent violations of the revenue laws
rather than to permit and punish them.
His appointment would be the moat sat
isfactory assurance to the people that new
methods are to be adopted and that the
evil* justly complained of lo Ibo admin
istration of the revenue department here
are to be removed. We believe Major
Bradley could ride through the moun
tains alone and unarmed "and eliminate
illicit distilling without the firing or a
.bot or the expenditure of a dollar. He
understands tho people, and they under
stand him and know they oan trust faim.
If we are to be rid of tba infernal
mtem of spies and informera and tho
deplorable resulta of blockading Major
Bradley ia tho man to do tho work. If
